Due to the current gap in continued funding from the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF), the NSF Unidata Program Center has temporarily paused most operations. See NSF Unidata Pause in Most Operations for details.

Re: [ldm-users] high memory

The choices for files of this size are ext2 if you don't care about journaling, or XFS. XFS has its own share of problems but does work very well.
